BLT Salad Bowls

There’s way more to salads than just lettuce, tomato and cucumber - that’s just a garnish!

This recipe brings you a salad that will serve as a lunch or dinner option and keep you going for ages. It features some of your favourite ingredients but in salad form. And if you’re not a meat eater, you can easily swap tempeh or tofu for the bacon. Plus you can add in any other ingredients you love or are lurking in the back of the fridge. Go on! Be imaginative and make your summer salads a riot of colour and flavour. midlifemenu.com/recipes/blt-salad-bowl

Sweet potato toast with avocado and poached egg

I was late to the party with sweet potato toast! I convinced myself that it wouldn’t really cook and that it was a bit of a faff. But I’m converted :) It’s dead easy to do, taste great and is a fab alternative to bread. The flavour is quite sweet though so we tend to mix lemon juice and fresh coriander through the avocado (like a simplified guacamole) and a grind of black pepper. Super yummy and will keep you full right through until lunch. midlifemenu.com/recipes/sweet-potato-toast

Kale Crisps

These are a regular occurrence in our household! They’re crunchy and crispy and you can adjust the flavour to be salty or spicy or a bit of both. If you’re looking for a healthier alternative to a packet of salt and vinegar, then give these a try. It might take a couple of goes to get the crispiness just right without burning them, but it will be worth it! midlifemenu.com/recipes/kale-crisps

Veggie breakfast egg muffins

I find people really struggle with breakfast alternatives to toast and cereal which seem so convenient. Here’s your breakfast alternative! www.midlifemenu.com/recipes/veggie-breakfast-egg-muffins
